Description: | Probably copper alloy stylus fragment. Tapered rod with a flat straight-ended spatulate terminal at one end, narrowing to a point at the other, the tip of which is probably lost. The flaking corrosion of the spatulate end introduces some doubt as to the material, which might be characteristic of unusually well-preserved iron (the reporter being parted from his magnet at the time of recording). Suggested date: Roman, 43-410.Length: 47.4mm, Width: 12.2mm, Thickness: 2.5mm, Weight: 3.63gms.
